There are two type of congenital prostatic cyst, the müllerian duct cyst and the utricular cyst. They are not common and rarely symptomatic. We report a 16-year-old male who presented with acute urinary retention and a 3-month history of urine stream diminished in force and reduced sperm volume. Transrectal ultrasonography showed a prostatic cyst in the midline near the seminal colliculus. Transperineal aspiration of the cyst resulted in return to normal miction and sperm volume.

Urinalysis, as a non-invasive and efficient diagnostic method, is very important but faces great challenges due to the complex compositions of urine and limited naturally occurring biomarkers for diseases. Herein, by leveraging the intrinsic absence of endogenous fluorinated interference, a strategy with the enzymatically activated assembly of synthetic fluorinated peptide for cholestatic liver injury (CLI) diagnosis and treatment through F nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) urinalysis and efficient drug retention is developed. Specifically, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), overexpressed in the liver of CLI mice, triggers the assembly of fluorinated peptide, thus, directing the traffic and dynamic distribution of the synthetic biomarkers after administration, whereas CLI mice display much slower clearance of peptides through urine as compared with healthy counterparts.

Background: Postoperative urinary retention (POUR), a known complication following total joint arthroplasty (TJA), remains inconsistent in its diagnostic criteria, prevalence, and risk factors. This study aims to quantify POUR rates, identify risk factors, and assess complications associated with catheterization in TJA.
Methods: A single-center cohort undergoing TJA between January 2015 and December 2022 was retrospectively reviewed.

In the clinical setting, individuals with neurogenic bladder dysfunction commonly utilize indwelling urinary catheters for urinary management. The comparative efficacy of catheter clamping versus continuous free drainage in this patient population is yet to be established. This meta-analysis aims to explore the efficacy and safety of catheter clamping versus natural drainage in patients with neurogenic bladder, to provide evidence to support the treatment and nursing care of these patients.

Introduction: Patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) and patient-controlled epidural analgesia (PCEA) constitute two major advances in pain management after major abdominal surgery. However, the role of PCIA or PCEA has not been particularly studied in elderly patients with gastric cancer. The aim of this study is to make a comparison between PCIA and PCEA in terms of their performance on short-term outcomes in elderly patients undergoing laparoscopic-assisted gastrectomy.

Objectives: We aimed to investigate the relationship between age ≥70 years and POUR.
